Valentine's Day Fun
Check out the photos from our Valentine's Day celebration last week.
First, we passed out valentines to our friends. We took the time to look at the cards we brought in and gave them out to our friends. When our friends handed us a card, we made sure to say "thank you" each time.
After that, we had our work time. During work time, Miss Stephanie called a few of us over at a time and we graphed valentine hearts. We each had a cup of hearts with various colors. We laid them out on the graphing sheet by color. Some of us read the color words and some of us had colored squares to help match them.
We talked about each of our graphs. Each one was different!
Questions we asked:
-Which color has the most?
-How do you know?
-Which one is the least?
-How do you know?
-Are any of them tied?
Some of us counted the hearts.
Some of us drew lines to see which ones were the most and which ones were the least.
Some of us used our fingers to figure out most and least.

Day In the Life-Circle Time (AM)
Welcome to our new series!
"A Day in the Life of Miss Stephanie's Class"
Last week we videotaped our circle time so our families can see a glimpse of what we do during the day! Our circle time consists of the following parts:
calendar
weather
letter of the week
daily message
counting jar
You can see each part of our circle time in a separate video.
There will be other posts coming in the coming weeks so you can see: Work time, snack time, play plans, and sign-in!
You will notice that the audio has been edited to remove kids' names. I try not to pair kids' faces with their names on this website.
The kids are VERY excited about the videos and sharing them with you at home.
Suggestions:
-Watch with your child.
-Ask questions about "what" we are doing "why" we are doing that.
-Point out things you see around the room and at circle time and ask about them.
We hope you enjoy getting a glimpse of us in the classroom!
